The Bitcoin price is currently trading at the resistance line of either a descending or symmetrical triangle. The next low will help determine the correct pattern.
This resistance, found at $9,150, is both a previous support level turned to resistance and an important Fibonacci level.
Bitcoin Reaches Major ResistanceInside this resistance, the BTC price has closed three higher-highs and is possibly in the process of creating the fourth.
However, this movement was combined with a very strong bearish divergence in the RSI, which is still ongoing. This suggests that the price will eventually decrease, possibly falling towards the long-term ascending support line.
Bitcoin Chart By Trading View Triangle PatternIn the short-term, the price is likely trading inside a descending triangle. This is a bearish pattern that indicates the price could soon break down.
At the time of writing, the price was trading just above the resistance line of this pattern. A breakdown would likely take the price to the closest support level, found around $7,700.
Bitcoin Chart By Trading ViewThe more bullish scenario has the price trading inside a symmetrical triangle. While this is a neutral pattern, a breakout would be expected, since it is transpiring after a strong upward movement. However, due to the major resistance above the current price, this breakout could end in a double top at $9,400.
If the price gets rejected by the resistance area, it is likely to move downward. Whether it makes a low close to the (c) bottom in the image below, it would mean that the support line is horizontal, and the price is trading inside a descending triangle. If however, it makes a higher-low, as outlined by (e) in the chart, it would mean that the price is trading inside a symmetrical triangle and a breakout likely awaits.
To conclude, the Bitcoin price is trading inside either a descending or symmetrical triangle. The next low reached by the price will go a long way in determining which is the correct pattern. At the time of writing, the descending triangle theory is slightly more likely.
